The exercise:

Your four line poem prompt this week: the day after.

I hope Santa was good to you :)

I'll be home tomorrow night, weather permitting.

Mine:

So many lovely presents were shared,
Everyone showed that they really cared,
I ate a lot but didn't get ill...
Just don't show me the credit card bill!

Santa was good to me, I have a chocolate-making class to attend sometime in the next six months, I just have to book the class! I hope he was good to you too :)

The day after

The left-over turkey would feed the five thousand,
And the beef has barely been touched,
But everyone's left feeling bloated and happy,
And I know I fed them enough!

The mark of a good host, Greg, is when one's guests leave waddling. It sounds like you were more than successful.

Corn and potatoes, turkey and stuffing,
Apple pie and creamy rice pudding.
Three different desserts, sent from Heaven.
Thank God the diet starts in seven!

Monica - haha, perfect final line. As usual :)
